Right out of the box, I could see the Gold C series grill was the right choice. To start with, Weber packaging is the very best I have seen, everything is padded and secured in the utmost care. Make sure you have another person to help remove this out of the box...it is large and heavy(this is a good thing).The stainless steel is of the highest quality and looks great! The grill was a breeze to put together (8 bolts altogether, they even include the wrench) Now for the best part...cooking! No lava rocks needed here, this baby is stainless steel all around: burners, flavorizer bars and grates are all stainless! My first cooking expedition... a modest ribeye, but the Weber showed it's colors! The sear marks were awesome and the steak was done to perfection.
The burners on this remind me of a top of the line Viking stove(nice even blue flames), they run the full length of the grill and each(3) are controlled separately. I looked at this grill at [a local retailer], but Amazon.com was lower in price....
If you like to grill and want something to last, check out this Weber...they have an excellent warranty to ensure your investment. ----5 month Update------
I have had this grill for five months now, are you wondering how I feel about the grill after using it at least 3-5 times a week? Well, I must tell you...this is the BEST grill for the money! The stainless still looks brand new and it cooks better than any grill I have ever used or seen. I have cooked: filet mignons, porterhouses, t-bones, strips, ribeyes, chicken, vegetables...the list goes on; and every time it shines through. Excellent heating, this machines get seriously hot in minutes and can maintain: high, medium and low heat evenly. If you're looking for a grill that really does deliver in this price range...this is it! I expect this grill to last for many years; take a second and break the cost of this grill out over 7-10 years. What a great bargain...excellent food and reliabilty.
Rating: - Amazing Grill, Terrific Value
My grill arrived today, and I was cooking perfect steaks in an hour. Very, very easy assembly, and this thing is built to last. This replaces a high-end grill from Char-Broil which disintigrated in 3 years, and I can tell the Weber will keep cooking for many, many more years. Plus, after "test driving" grills from a number of manufacturers, the Weber is the only one to deliver consistantly great results.Amazon.com's free shipping makes this an incredible value, and the delivery company took the carton right to my patio, solving logistics problems from buying locally for those of us without pickup trucks. In short, I can't recommend this Weber more highly, and I look forward to years of great grilling!
Rating: - Compare all other BBQ's against this one!
1) The stainless steel lid looks like new after one year outside.
2) The drip pan under the flavorizer bars slides out and cleans very easily.
3) I got thick cast iron grills at Home Depot for the Weber and HIGHLY recommend them. They really hold the heat and create great grill marks. They are also easy to brush clean.
4) I have the natural gas model and it has always started on the first try.This is not the most inexpensive bbq out there, but the quality and value are really there.
